Instructions:
1. Cook the Ground Beef:
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the ground beef until browned and crumbled (about 5-7 minutes).

2. Prepare the Creamy Base:
In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.

Garnish with chopped green onions for a pop of freshness (optional).
Serve hot with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.
